Before Severin frothers I had a cheap product from a supermarket, which was a tick worse, but it has given up the ghost just days after the expiry of the two-year warranty. The milk frother Severin is faster, better handling of the (button on the side), high-performance, but battery (or battery Herbivorous). In battery mode, the mind at all, until next use (several times a day), the batteries are already fit. Well today has abandoned me of Severin. From now on equal no sound more: - /, I have it now a year and could exchange it of course, but the effort is likely to be disproportionate on the price yet. About one a buyer really should be in the clear, for eternity no milk frother is made, there are utility, but also Wegschmeissprodukte, the filigree technique holds a time, maybe you can in prices (made in Weitweg) but no more expected.
